75-715: The Hassayampa Flyer , also known as the Hassayampa Chief , was a passenger train operated by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway between Ash Fork (later Williams Junction ) and Phoenix in Arizona , United States . In 1955, the Santa Fe reduced its passenger operations on the Peavine route to a single daily train in either direction. Officially designated as train 42 (northbound) and train 47 (southbound),
150-427: A 5"–high extended font, and centered on the nose was the "Santa Fe" box logo (initially consisting of a blue cross, circle, and square painted on a solid bronze sheet, but subsequently changed to baked steel sheets painted bronze with the blue identifying elements applied on top). Three thin, pale yellow stripes (known as Cat Whiskers ) extended from the nose logo around the cab sides. In January, 1951, Santa Fe revised
225-406: A complete listing of housing types and layouts, real estate trends for shifts in the market, and house or home for more general information. Real estate can be valued or devalued based on the amount of environmental degradation that has occurred. Environmental degradation can cause extreme health and safety risks. There is a growing demand for the use of site assessments (ESAs) when valuing
300-533: A half-interest to the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR). The TP&W cut straight east across Illinois from near Fort Madison, Iowa (Lomax, IL), to a connection with the PRR at Effner, Indiana (Illinois–Indiana border), forming a bypass around Chicago for traffic moving between the two lines. The TP&W route did not mesh with the traffic patterns Conrail developed after 1976, so AT&SF bought back
375-684: A handful of which have either been restored to operating condition or are pending future restoration. Some of the more notable locomotives include: Santa Fe maintained and operated a fleet of three passenger ferry boats (the San Pablo , the San Pedro , and the Ocean Wave ) that connected Richmond, California , with San Francisco by water. The ships traveled the eight miles between the San Francisco Ferry Terminal and
450-486: A merger between the parent companies of the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific (SP) railroads in 1984. The red, yellow, and black paint scheme with large yellow block letters on the sides and ends of the units of the proposed Southern Pacific Santa Fe Railroad (SPSF) has come to be somewhat derisively known among railfans as the Kodachrome livery, due to the similarity in colors to the boxes containing slide film sold by
525-474: A new unified paint scheme. While Southern Pacific (railroad) was sold off to Rio Grande Industries , all of the SP's real estate holdings were consolidated into a new company, Catellus Development Corporation , making it California's largest private landowner, of which Santa Fe remained the owner. In the early 1980s, gold was discovered on several properties west of Battle Mountain, Nevada along I-80, on ground owned by
600-404: A nose emblem consisting of an elongated yellow "Circle and Cross" emblem with integral "tabs" on the nose and the sides, outlined and accented with black pinstripes, with variances according to the locomotive model. "SANTA FE" was displayed on the horizontal limb of the cross in black, Art Deco -style lettering. This emblem has come to be known as the " cigar band " due to its uncanny resemblance to
675-416: A pair of blunt-nosed units ( EMC 1800 hp B-B ) designated as Nos. 1 and 1A. The upper portion of the sides and ends of the units were painted gold, while the lower section was a dark olive green color; an olive stripe also ran along the sides and widened as it crossed the front of the locomotive. Riveted to the sides of the units were metal plaques bearing a large "Indian Head" logo , which owed its origin to
750-642: A property for both private and commercial real estate. Environmental surveying is made possible by environmental surveyors who examine the environmental factors present within the development of real estate as well as the impacts that development and real estate has on the environment. Green development is a concept that has grown since the 1970s with the environmental movement and the World Commission on Environment and Development. Green development examines social and environmental impacts with real estate and building. There are 3 areas of focus, being
825-467: A short time, Pacific types 1369 and 1376 were semi-streamlined for " Valley Flyer " service, with a unique paint scheme in colors similar to those used on the new passenger diesels. Unique was the two-tone light blue over royal blue scheme of streamlined Hudson type 3460 . Santa Fe's first set of diesel-electric passenger locomotives was placed in service on the Super Chief in 1936, and consisted of
SECTION 10
#1732772456803900-479: A variation of the "Warbonnet" scheme in which the black and yellow separating stripes disappeared. The "Santa Fe" name was emblazoned on the sides in large black letters, using the same stencils used on freight engines; these were soon repainted in red. In 1989, Santa Fe resurrected this version of the "Warbonnet" scheme and applied it to two SDFP45 units, #5992 and #5998. The units were re-designated as #101 and #102 and reentered service on July 4, 1989, as part of
975-608: Is often purchased as an investment, whether or not the owner intends to use the property. Often investment properties are rented out, but " flipping " involves quickly reselling a property, sometimes taking advantage of arbitrage or quickly rising value, and sometimes after repairs are made that substantially raise the value of the property. Luxury real estate is sometimes used as a way to store value, especially by wealthy foreigners, without any particular attempt to rent it out. Some luxury units in London and New York City have been used as
1050-428: Is property consisting of land and the buildings on it, along with its natural resources such as growing crops (e.g. timber), minerals or water, and wild animals; immovable property of this nature; an interest vested in this (also) an item of real property , (more generally) buildings or housing in general. In terms of law, real relates to land property and is different from personal property, while estate means
1125-446: Is reminiscent of a Native American ceremonial head-dress . The scheme consisted of a red "bonnet" that wrapped around the front of the unit and was bordered by a yellow stripe and black pinstripe. The extent of the bonnet varied according to the locomotive model and was largely determined by the shape and length of the car body. The remainder of the unit was either painted silver or was composed of stainless-steel panels. All units wore
1200-501: The Burlington Northern & Santa Fe Railway (BNSF). Some of the challenges resulting from the joining of the two companies included the establishment of a common dispatching system, the unionization of AT&SF's non-union dispatchers, and incorporating AT&SF's train identification codes throughout. The two lines maintained separate operations until December 31, 1996, when it officially became BNSF. AT&SF
1275-748: The Chicagoan and Kansas Cityan trains (both names referred to the same service, but the Chicagoan was the eastbound version, while the Kansas Cityan was the westbound version), and the Eastern Express and West Texas Express . All AT&SF trains that terminated in Chicago did so at Dearborn Station . Trains terminating in Los Angeles arrived at AT&SF's La Grande Station until May 1939, when Los Angeles Union Passenger Terminal
1350-544: The EMD GP60M and General Electric B40-8W which made the Santa Fe the only US Class I railroad to operate new 4-axle (B-B) freight locomotives equipped with the North American Safety Cab intended for high-speed intermodal service. Several experimental and commemorative paint schemes emerged during the Santa Fe's diesel era. One combination was developed and partially implemented in anticipation of
1425-568: The Eastman Kodak Company under the same name. Santa Fe units repainted in this scheme were labeled "SF", Southern Pacific units "SP", and some (presumably new) units wore the letters "SPSF". After the ICC's denial of the merger, railfans joked that SPSF really stood for "Shouldn't Paint So Fast." While most of the Santa Fe's steam locomotives were retired and sold for scrap, over fifty were saved and donated to various parks and museums,
1500-691: The Great Depression in the U.S. caused a major drop in real estate worth and prices and ultimately resulted in depreciation of 50% for the four years after 1929. Housing financing in the U.S. was greatly affected by the Banking Act of 1933 and the National Housing Act in 1934 because it allowed for mortgage insurance for home buyers and this system was implemented by the Federal Deposit Insurance as well as
1575-532: The Royal Gorge Railroad War . Federal intervention prompted an out-of-court settlement on February 2, 1880, in the form of the so-called "Treaty of Boston", wherein the D&;RG was allowed to complete its line and lease it for use by the Santa Fe. Building across Kansas and eastern Colorado was simple, with few natural obstacles, but the railroad found it almost economically impossible because of
SECTION 20
#17327724568031650-729: The Santa Fe or AT&SF , was one of the largest Class 1 railroads in the United States between 1859 and 1996. The Santa Fe was a pioneer in intermodal freight transport ; at various times, it operated an airline, the short-lived Santa Fe Skyway, and the Santa Fe Railroad tugboats . Its bus line extended passenger transportation to areas not accessible by rail, and ferryboats on the San Francisco Bay allowed travelers to complete their westward journeys to
1725-803: The Super Chief / El Capitan , the Texas Chief and the San Diegan (though Amtrak reduced the San Diegan from three daily round trips to two). Discontinued were the San Francisco Chief , the ex- Grand Canyon , the Tulsan , and a Denver–La Junta local. ATSF had been more than willing to retain the San Diegan and its famed Chiefs. However, any railroad that opted out of Amtrak would have been required to operate all of its passenger routes until at least 1976. The prospect of having to keep operating its less-successful routes, especially
1800-477: The "interest" a person has in that land property. Real estate is different from personal property, which is not permanently attached to the land (or comes with the land), such as vehicles, boats, jewelry, furniture, tools, and the rolling stock of a farm and farm animals. In the United States, the transfer, owning, or acquisition of real estate can be through business corporations, individuals, nonprofit corporations, fiduciaries, or any legal entity as seen within
1875-564: The 1860s. The original shops were relocated in 1878 to the south side of Seward Avenue and expanded in 1902 to double the repair capacity. The shops at Albuquerque , New Mexico, were built in 1880 and materially expanded in 1925. Another shop site was established at San Bernardino , California, in 1886. To maintain rolling stock in the state of Texas, a fourth major shop facility was built in Cleburne, Texas , in 1899. Physical confrontations led to two years of armed conflict that became known as
1950-459: The 1926 Chief " drumhead " logo. " Super Chief " was emblazoned on a plaque located on the front. The rooftop was light slate gray, rimmed by a red pinstripe. This unique combination of colors was called the Golden Olive paint scheme. Before entering service, Sterling McDonald 's General Motors Styling Department augmented the look with the addition of red and blue striping along both
2025-508: The 2-10-2, Santa Fe rostered virtually every type of steam locomotive imaginable, including 4-4-2 Atlantics , 2-6-0 Moguls, 2-8-0 Consolidations , 2-8-2 Mikados , 2-10-0 Decapods , 2-6-2 Prairies , 4-8-4 Heavy-Mountains , 4-6-4 Heavy-Pacifics , 4-6-2 Pacifics , 4-8-2 Mountains , 2-8-4 Berkshires , and 2-10-4 Texas . The railroad also operated a fleet of heavy articulated Mallet locomotives , including 1158 class 2-6-6-2s , 2-8-8-0s , 2-10-10-2s , 2-8-8-2s , and
2100-574: The BNSF era, the company adopted a new paint scheme often known among railfans as the "Freightbonnet" or "Yellowbonnet", which placed more yellow on the locomotives (reminiscent of the company's retired Warbonnet scheme); the goal again was to ensure higher visibility at grade crossings. The truck assemblies, previously colored black, now received silver paint. In 1965, the road took delivery of ten GE U28CG dual-service road switcher locomotives equally suited to passenger or fast freight service. These wore
2175-675: The DL109/110 locomotive set, and ATSF 1A after it was rebuilt and repainted. The sides of the units typically bore the words "SANTA FE" in black, 5"– or 9"–high extra extended Railroad Roman letters, as well as the "Indian Head" logo, with a few notable exceptions.

2250-620: The Federal Housing Administration. In 1938, an amendment was made to the National Housing Act and Fannie Mae , a government agency, was established to serve as a secondary market for mortgages and to give lenders more money in order for new homes to be funded. Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act in the U.S., which is also known as the Fair Housing Act, was put into place in 1968 and dealt with
2325-605: The Pacific Ocean. The AT&SF was the subject of a popular song, Harry Warren and Johnny Mercer 's " On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe ", written for the film The Harvey Girls (1946). The railroad officially ceased independent operations on December 31, 1996, when it merged with the Burlington Northern Railroad to form the Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway . The railroad

2400-567: The Peavine, creating a new cutoff that bypassed a tortuous section of track between Prescott and Skull Valley . Works began in 1961 and were completed the following year, leaving Prescott without any direct passenger services. A branch line to the town remained, but it was abandoned before the end of 1962. With passenger numbers on the route dwindling, through Pullman cars from Chicago to Phoenix were terminated in October 1967 and later that year
2475-718: The Santa Fe Railroad (formerly SP). The Santa Fe Pacific Corporation (a name correlation of Santa Fe and Southern Pacific) was to develop the properties. They were sold to Newmont during 1997 in preparation for the merger with Burlington Northern ). Sometime later, Catellus would purchase the Union Pacific Railroad 's interest in the Los Angeles Union Passenger Terminal (LAUPT). On September 22, 1995, AT&SF merged with Burlington Northern Railroad to form
2550-421: The Santa Fe as well–virtually every small town main street and a number of city streets had their crossings protected by these unique wigwags. Virtually all the wigwags were replaced with modern signals by the turn of the 21st century. The railroad was also known for its tall "T-2 style" upper quadrant semaphores which provided traffic control on its lines. Again, the vast majority of these had been replaced by
2625-572: The Santa Fe was an early user of wigwag signals from the Magnetic Signal Company, beginning in the 1920s. They had several distinct styles that were not commonly seen elsewhere. Model 10's, which had the wigwag motor and banner coming from halfway up the mast with the crossbucks on top, were almost unique to the Santa Fe–the Southern Pacific had a few as well. Upper quadrant Magnetic Flagmen were used extensively on
2700-583: The Santa Fe withdrew the Hassayampa Flyer from service. The Interstate Commerce Commission , the railroad regulatory body, ordered the train reinstated, but only a handful of passengers continued to use it. In April 1969, it was permanently removed from the timetable. This United States rail–related article is a stub . You can help Misplaced Pages by expanding it . Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway ( reporting mark ATSF ), often referred to as

The merger was subsequently denied by the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) on the basis that it would create too many duplicate routes. The companies were so confident the merger would be approved that they began repainting locomotives and non-revenue rolling stock in
2850-557: The beginning of the 21st century, with fewer than 10 still remaining in use in New Mexico as of 2023. The Santa Fe operated a large and varied fleet of steam locomotives . In 1899, the company owned 1,036 locomotives. Among them was the 2-10-2 "Santa Fe", originally built for the railroad by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1903. The railroad would ultimately end up with the largest fleet of them, at over 300. Aside from
2925-483: The circle and cross emblem was applied to the tenders of a few passenger locomotives, but these were all later painted over. After World War II, "Santa Fe" appeared on tender sides of mainline road locomotives in white, above the unit number. Locomotives were delivered from Baldwin with white paint on the wheel rims, but the road did not repaint these "whitewalls" after shopping the locomotives. After World War II, side rods and valve gear were painted chrome yellow. For
3000-476: The city, the railroad chose to bypass Santa Fe, due to the engineering challenges of the mountainous terrain. Eventually a branch line from Lamy, New Mexico , brought the Santa Fe railroad the 20 miles to its namesake city. The system was eventually expanded with branch lines into California, Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Illinois. By 1887 the mainline had been completed from Chicago to Los Angeles, making it one of
3075-721: The country’s most important railroads and one of the few that directly connected the Midwest with the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean under one corporation. The principal lines consisted of Chicago to Kansas City to La Junta, Colorado, to Los Angeles; Emporia, Kansas, to Oklahoma City to Fort Worth to Houston; Emporia, Kansas, to Dalies, New Mexico; Barstow to Richmond, California; Temple to Farwell, Texas; Denver to La Junta, Colorado; Albuquerque, New Mexico, to El Paso, Texas; Dallas to Presidio, Texas; and Kansas City to Tulsa. The primary back shops at Topeka , Kansas, were first established in

3150-634: The effects of the Great Depression and routed their trains to Southern Pacific's ferry terminal in Oakland . The San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge opened in 1936, initiating a slow decline in demand for SP's ferry service, which was eventually discontinued c. 1958 ; starting in 1938, SF-bound passengers could board buses across the bridge at the Santa Fe Oakland depot (located in Emeryville ). Real estate Real estate
3225-588: The ends and cab sides to increase the visibility at grade crossings (typically referred to as the Zebra Stripe scheme). "A.T.& S.F." was now placed along the sides of the unit just above the accent stripe, with the blue and white "Santa Fe" box logo below. Due to the lack of abundant water sources in the American desert, the Santa Fe Railway was among the first railroads to receive large numbers of streamlined diesel locomotives for use in freight service, in
3300-485: The environmental responsiveness, resource efficiency , and the sensitivity of cultural and societal aspects. Examples of Green development are green infrastructure , LEED , conservation development , and sustainability developments. Real estate in itself has been measured as a contributing factor to the rise in green house gases. According to the International Energy Agency, real estate in 2019
3375-478: The film The Harvey Girls , a story about the waitresses of the Fred Harvey Company 's restaurants. It was sung in the film by Judy Garland and recorded by many other singers, including Bing Crosby . In the 1970s, the railroad used Crosby's version in a commercial. AT&SF ceased operating passenger trains on May 1, 1971, when it conveyed its remaining trains to Amtrak . These included
3450-504: The form of the EMD FT . For the first group of FTs, delivered between December 1940 and March 1943 (#100–#119), the railroad selected a color scheme consisting of dark blue accented by a pale yellow stripe up the nose, and pale yellow highlights around the cab and along the mesh and framing of openings in the sides of the engine compartment; a thin red stripe separated the blue areas from the yellow. The words SANTA FE were applied in yellow in
3525-506: The idea of private property. One of the largest initial real estate deals in history known as the " Louisiana Purchase " happened in 1803 when the Louisiana Purchase Treaty was signed. This treaty paved the way for western expansion and made the U.S. the owners of the " Louisiana Territory " as the land was bought from France for fifteen million, making each acre roughly 4 cents. The oldest real estate brokerage firm
3600-415: The image of a passenger carrier. Diesels used as switchers between 1935 and 1960 were painted black, with just a thin white or silver horizontal accent stripe (the sills were painted similarly). The letters "A.T.& S.F." were applied in a small font centered on the sides of the unit, as was the standard blue and white "Santa Fe" box logo. After World War II , diagonal white or silver stripes were added to
3675-659: The incorporation of African Americans into neighborhoods as the issues of discrimination were analyzed with the renting, buying, and financing of homes. Internet real estate as a concept began with the first appearance of real estate platforms on the World Wide Web (www) and occurred in 1999. Residential real estate may contain either a single family or multifamily structure that is available for occupation or for non-business purposes. Residences can be classified by and how they are connected to neighbouring residences and land. Different types of housing tenure can be used for
3750-526: The law of each U.S. state. The natural right of a person to own property as a concept can be seen as having roots in Roman law as well as Greek philosophy. The profession of appraisal can be seen as beginning in England during the 1500s, as agricultural needs required land clearing and land preparation. Textbooks on the subject of surveying began to be written and the term "surveying" was used in England, while
3825-473: The money-bleeding 23/24 (the former Grand Canyon ) led ATSF to get out of passenger service altogether. Amtrak still runs the Super Chief and San Diegan today as the Southwest Chief and Pacific Surfliner , respectively, although the original routes and equipment have been modified by Amtrak. AT&SF operated the following named trains on regular schedules: Occasionally, a special train

#17327724568033900-600: The most popular and durable, becoming to the Santa Fe what New York City - Philadelphia trains were to the Pennsylvania Railroad . But Santa Fe flyers also served Tulsa, Oklahoma , El Paso, Texas , Phoenix, Arizona (the Hassayampa Flyer ), and Denver, Colorado , among other cities not on their main line. To reach smaller communities, the railroad operated mixed (passenger and freight) trains or gas-electric doodlebug rail cars . The latter were later converted to diesel power, and one pair of Budd Rail Diesel Cars
3975-548: The new "Super Fleet" campaign (the first Santa Fe units to be so decorated for freight service). The six remaining FP45 units were thereafter similarly repainted and renumbered. From that point forward, most new locomotives wore red and silver, and many retained this scheme after the Burlington Northern Santa Fe merger, some with "BNSF" displayed across their sides. For the initial deliveries of factory-new "Super Fleet" equipment, Santa Fe took delivery of
4050-535: The other half, merged the TP&;W in 1983, then sold it back into independence in 1989. AT&SF began merger talks in the 1980s. The Southern Pacific Santa Fe Railroad (SPSF) was a proposed merger between the parent companies of the Southern Pacific and AT&SF announced on December 23, 1983. As part of the joining of the two firms, all rail and non-rail assets owned by Santa Fe Industries and
4125-674: The railroad's Point Richmond terminal across San Francisco Bay. The service was originally established as a continuation of the company's named passenger train runs such as the Angel and the Saint . The larger two ships (the San Pablo and the San Pedro ) carried Fred Harvey Company dining facilities. Rival SP owned the world's largest ferry fleet (which was subsidized by other railroad activities), at its peak carrying 40 million passengers and 60 million vehicles annually aboard 43 vessels. Santa Fe discontinued ferry service in 1933 due to
4200-422: The rare 4-4-6-2 . The railroad retired its last steam locomotive in 1959. During the twentieth century, all but one of these was painted black, with white unit numbers on the sand domes and three sides of the tender. Cab sides were lettered "AT&SF", also in white. The subsidiary Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe often painted all or part of the smokebox (between the boiler and the headlight) white or silver. In 1940,
4275-617: The same physical type. For example, connected residences might be owned by a single entity and leased out, or owned separately with an agreement covering the relationship between units and common areas and concerns. According to the Congressional Research Service, in 2021, 65% of homes in the U.S. are owned by the occupier. Other categories The size of havelis and chawls is measured in Gaz (square yards), Quila, Marla, Beegha, and acre. See List of house types for

On all but the " Erie-built " units (which were essentially run as a demonstrator set), GE U28CG , GE U30CG , and FP45 units, a three-part yellow and black stripe ran up the nose behind the band. A "Circle and Cross" motif (consisting of a yellow field, with red quadrants, outlined in black) was painted around the side windows on "as-delivered" E1 units. Similar designs were added to E3s , E6s ,
4425-433: The scheme to consist of three yellow stripes running up the nose, with the addition of a blue and yellow Cigar Band (similar in size and shape to that applied to passenger units); the blue background and elongated yellow "SANTA FE" lettering were retained. The years 1960 to 1972 saw non-streamlined freight locomotives sporting the "Billboard" color scheme (sometimes referred to as the "Bookends" or "Pinstripe" scheme), where
4500-553: The scheme to its gas-electric " doodlebug " units. The standard for all of Santa Fe's passenger locomotives, the Warbonnet is considered by many to be the most-recognized corporate logo in the railroad industry. Early after Amtrak's inception in 1971, Santa Fe embarked on a program to repaint the red bonnet on its F units that were still engaged in hauling passenger consists with yellow (also called Yellowbonnets ) or dark blue (nicknamed Bluebonnets ), as it no longer wanted to project
4575-669: The service became known unofficially as the Hassayampa Flyer or the Hassayampa Chief , after the nearby Hassayampa River . The northern terminus was originally Ash Fork , to connect passengers from Phoenix with intercontinental trains between Chicago and the West Coast on the Southern Transcon main line. In 1960, the Santa Fe re-routed the Southern Transcon (via the Crookton Cutoff ) to avoid

The new 44-mile (71 km) stretch of railroad took the main line out of the downtown depots in both towns, with a freshly-constructed station constructed at Williams Junction serving as the new northern terminus for the Hassayampa Flyer . The Santa Fe had already won planning approval for a further amendment to the route of

In a little over a year, the EMC E1 (a new and improved streamlined locomotive) would be pulling the Super Chief and other passenger consists, resplendent in the now-famous Warbonnet paint scheme devised by Leland Knickerbocker of the GM Art and Color Section. Its design was protected under a U.S. design patent , granted on November 9, 1937. It

On March 29, 1955 , the railway was one of many companies that sponsored attractions in Disneyland with its five-year sponsorship of all Disneyland trains and stations until 1974. In 1960, AT&SF bought the Toledo, Peoria & Western Railroad (TP&W); then sold
4875-565: The term "appraising" was more used in North America. Natural law which can be seen as "universal law" was discussed among writers of the 15th and 16th century as it pertained to "property theory" and the inter-state relations dealing with foreign investments and the protection of citizens private property abroad. Natural law can be seen as having an influence in Emerich de Vattel 's 1758 treatise The Law of Nations which conceptualized
4950-547: The tracks were laid directly over the wagon ruts of the Santa Fe Trail . In 1869, the first general office building of the company was built in Topeka. This building also served as a passenger station and freight depot. When the line was extended to Newton, Kansas in 1871, the railroad became a major cattle shipper to ensure a steady revenue stream, at the end of Texas cattle drive trails . Despite being chartered to serve
5025-439: The units were predominantly dark blue with yellow ends and trim, with a single yellow accent pinstripe. The words "Santa Fe" were applied in yellow in large bold serif letters (logotype) to the sides of the locomotive below the accent stripe (save for yard switchers which displayed the "SANTA FE" in small yellow letters above the accent stripe, somewhat akin to the Zebra Stripe arrangement). From 1972 to 1996, and even on into

The AT&SF offered food on board in a dining car or at one of the many Harvey House restaurants that were strategically located throughout the system. In general, the same train name was used for both directions of a particular train. The exceptions to this rule included
5175-427: Was chartered in February 1859 to serve the cities of Atchison and Topeka, Kansas , and Santa Fe, New Mexico . The railroad reached the Kansas – Colorado border in 1873 and Pueblo, Colorado , in 1876. To create a demand for its services, the railroad set up real estate offices and sold farmland from the land grants that it was awarded by Congress for laying track. As the railroad was first being built, many of
5250-403: Was chartered to make a high-profile run over the Santa Fe's track. These specials were not included in the railroad's regular revenue service lineup, but were intended as one-time (and usually one-way) traversals of the railroad. Some of the more notable specials include: The Santa Fe employed several distinctive wayside and crossing signal styles. In an effort to reduce grade crossing accidents,
